What’s your excuse?

I don’t know who updates the blackboard at my Kosama gym each week but I love her!

They always make me think.

I started thinking about excuses and how they can trap us into staying right where we are.

Have you given into any excuses lately?

Not enough time

Someone else does it much better than me

What will people think?

I don’t know how

It will take too long

I need a nap

I’m not a morning person

She might say no

How do I know these? Because I’ve uses all of these before and then I went nowhere.

Same with you?

How about making the rest of March the No Excuse Month? Seriously. When the thought creeps into your head, and excuses are very sneaky, say ‘Stop’. Then think of a way you can do it. There is always a way.

If you don’t know, ask someone.

One of the reasons I’ve done so many things in my business is because I did them before I fully knew how. Like: Speaking, giving webinars, designing handouts in Microsoft Publisher, writing a newsletter and blog, Facebook, Instagram, etc.

Did they all succeed at first? Absolutely not! Did they eventually succeed? Yes. But, they would not have if I had let my excuses win and never started.
